Key Elements

  • Safe, Boring, and Under-the-Radar Companies. Fieldsong's equity positions avoid high-fliers, fads, glamour stocks, and companies that everybody knows.
  • No Management Fee. Fieldsong believes that only outperformance should be rewarded
  • Offshore Feeder Fund. Our British Virgin Islands fund is a pipeline into the Delaware master fund; it offers offshore investors and IRAs advantages in tax efficiency, flexibility, and compliance.
  • Strong Performance. Yuval Taylor, Fieldsong’s portfolio manager, has amassed an exceptional performance record in his family portfolio, with an eight-year CAGR of 46% (2016–2023 inclusive).
  • Modest Hedging. We sell short stocks likely to collapse.  We also use a futures-based currency hedge and a derivatives-based hedge that makes money when safe stocks underperform and risky stocks outperform.

Investing Approach

  • Algorithmic Methodology. Complex but dependable rules inform every decision. Discretionary stock-picking can too easily fall prey to irrationality.
  • Fundamentals-Based. Financial statements comprise the key data for the fund’s strategy.
  • Ranking-Based. Ranking allows one to simultaneously consider hundreds of factors pertinent to an investment s prospects.
  • Daily Rebalance/Reconstitution By trading daily, Fieldsong can enter and exit positions gradually, minimize small/microcap market impact, and react quickly to major price moves and earnings releases. (Note: this is not day trading positions are held for months.)
  • Sophisticated Portfolio Management. Transaction costs, portfolio weighting, diversification, leverage, hedging, and much more are all carefully calibrated.
  • Boutique Approach. Investments are capped at $80M and investors will be limited to a select group.
